We had a blast on our BBQ tour, talking to owner (I love his passion!) and having unbelievable ribs, the best turkey I've ever had and perfect chicken wings. I will definitely go back, wonderful experience and food. I'd give 10 out of 10 stars if I could! read more

We were traveling to my son and daughter in law's home in Kansas City and wanted to bring lunch along. My son had told me he likes their bbq, so we figured we'd order lunch. I had to order it on the drive and pick it up, and the person who took my order was fabulous! He was patient while I made decisions on what sides to get, and repeated my order back a couple of times to make sure it was correct. We only waited 5 minutes when we got to the restaurant and the food was hot. It is probably some of the best bbq we have had in Kansas City and we've tried quite a few! The order was correct and the food was amazing! Would very much recommend!! read more

Staff was friendly, menu prices are about the same as any other bbq place. Out of sliced brisket, so did the burnt ends and sausage. Burnt ends were good, not much char to them, but good flavor. Sausage, meh. Reminded me of the stuff from the grocery store. Fries were cooked well. Wife had brisket fries, she enjoyed it. Sauces had good flavor. We would happily come back here over the place down the road. read more

BBQ is so good. Sandwiches and ribs and baked potatoes with BBQ are delicious. Customer service is great with happy people!! Love those cookies for dessert!! read more

You HAVE to try the pulled pork!!! I have traveled around the BBQ block a time or two, and I have to say this was the very BEST pulled pork I have ever had!!! As much as I love their BBQ sauce, the pork was so delicious that I didn't even want to put sauce on it. If you know the taste of good pork, this is the extreme of PURE, delicious, authentic, juicy, smoked BBQ pork. You will not be disappointed! read more

Tried Off the Hook for the first time today. Prompt and friendly service. Nice new and clean location. I had the Fries Nachos with Brisket, sooo good. My wife had the Brisket Grilled Cheese with beans. Good size sandwich with good portion of brisket(she couldn't finish it) and the beans were very good. There are only a couple of places in KC that I get beans and would order these again anytime. Would have been five stars, but the burnt ends weren't available when we got there for lunch and we were both craving burnt ends, hopefully next time. Looking forward to coming back to sample everything. read more

Was recommended by a friend. Awesome ownership! Great service! Got the brisket nachos, chicken nachos, and the Mac & cheese bites and they were PHENOMENAL! When we were there it seemed like the door just kept opening with people coming in. Good BBQ joint atmosphere to it as well. Incredible restaurant built the right way by the right kind of people. A new staple for our family! read more

We were greeted as we came in with a smile. It was new and clean, sparkly even. We did notice that was a lack of smoky cooking smells that usually surrounds a bbq joint. We figured they must smoke their meat somewhere else. We gave our order our order and were told that though the online menu included two sides with the ribs it was wrong. We ordered a slab of ribs with beans and a pulled pork sandwich with beans, both to go. The ribs were a disappointment. If you like your ribs tender to the point of mushy with very little flavor of their own this is the place for you. The beans were on the sweet side so it was okay that the portion size was small. My partner reported the pulled pork sandwich was tasty. He appreciated the ingredients are presented separately and you build your own sandwich. There was actually enough meat to make a second sandwich later. The service was top notch. The owner, Wardell, was there and seems to be a hands on guy. As far as the ribs go, they are a matter of personal taste. I feel I need to go back one day and try the burnt ends. read more

We had the ribs and brisket. Plus, baked beans and potato salad. Ribs came off the bone easily and the brisket both were delicious, as well,as the beans and potato salad. This restaurant has been put on our go to restaurant. definitely, worth trying. read more

It just opened and it now one of my favorite bbq places. I had the chopped brisket, baked beans with a side of fries. Yum. Warmly greeted. I will be back. Loved the small but very adequate dining space. read more

Trying to support black own business, mind you we drove 25 mins just to be disappointed, we ordered 2 brisket sandwiches and bb other one fries that meat had so much fat on sandwich gave us 3 slices one of the slices was all fat we had to pick the meat on the other 2 slices, barely any fries the beans just ok. We will stick with gates the professionals. Prices are to high for that little portions. Sorry no stars here read more

I arrived at the joint to have an employee tell me all they had were wings for lunch. I came for the ribs and burnt ends and promptly walked out. I don't know if the problem was the popularity of the joint (newly opened), a delivery issue, or something else. I will give it 6 months to a year and see if it improves. Parking is a major problem here as they are in the first floor of an apartment complex and there is basically no thought into providing parking for the businesses. read more

Oh. My. GAWD. As a KC native I've tried it all‐ Joe's, Bryant's, Jackstack, Slaps... I was super pumped to get good bbq up here in the northland, but dare I say this might be the best I've had in the city! And they just opened last week and don't even have their full menu available yet! Tonight I got a takeout sampler of orders of ribs, pulled pork, and the brisket with fries and beans for the sides. Everything I tried was absolutely phenomenal. Additional shout out to the Hook family and Jenny behind the counter tonight. They were an absolute pleasure to meet and converse with. I see a very big future for this quaint, new restaurant on N Oak read more

The Off the Hook food truck was at Briarfest this weekend and my tent mate and I decided to give them a try.We both got the pulled brisket sandwich, which came with chips and pickles. The sandwich was huge! The bun was filled with beautifully tender and flavorful pulled brisket. The sauce was sweet and tangy and there was just the right amount. I understand they have a walk up window in Parkville, and are planning to open a brick and mortar later this year at 152 and Green Hills Rd. Highly recommend you give them a try! read more

After seeing talk on FB I drove there to try it out. I live 20 miles away. I ordered a sliced brisket sandwich and bbq beans. Beans were copycat from Smokehouse. The sandwich was the worst I ever ate. The meat was over 2 inches of pure fat and I had to spit it out. Opened up the bun to see 60 percent fat on sandwich. I won't be going back read more

Me and my best friend came here and LOVED it! the owner is the nicest person ever, offered us to try brisket (mouth watering), and everyone was so very nice!! HIGHLY recommend! service is 10/10, food 10/10, and ambience 10/10!! I hope to see this place TAKE OFF! read more

Just had our first visit here and it will definitely not be our last! This is the best barbecue in Kansas City's Northland. Period. Some of the best in the entire city! We tried the sampler platter so we could taste a little of everything and oh my....every single thing was outstanding. The beef, the turkey, the ribs...oh the ribs...all are fall apart tender, juicy and so, so flavorful! The beans and slaw are fantastic! There are two sauce offerings and we can highly recommend the "spicy" sauce. It's not spicy, as in hot, it's just got a little more of spiced oomph than the original (which is also very good, don't get me wrong). All this amazing food and you're in a place that's open and airy and comfortable and welcoming and warm and...and... If you're looking for some INCREDIBLE barbecue, this is the place you want to be. Cannot say enough good things about Off The Hook. Cannot wait until our next visit! read more

I went back to try out more of the menu. My previous review was written during their soft open period and my choices were limited. Today I got to try their brisket, sausage, beans and cheesy potatoes, as a carryout. My wife got a Turkey melt, beans and Coleslaw. I got to chat with the owner/manager and staff. They are all so nice, hardworking and friendly. It's refreshing to find a place where they are happy and truly interested in their customers. That alone will keep me coming back and recommending to my friends. Like my first review, they're at a new location and it's very clean and cozy. I love the counter seating. Now for the food. The brisket passed the pull test, was very moist, little fat, and very flavorful. The sausage was the best I've had. I don't usually order sausage because the smoke doesn't penetrate the skin very well; so I usually pass on it. However, this time I went for it and was pleasantly surprised. It was kind of like a polish sausage with medium heat, super texture and flavor. The beans are my favorite of all in the city, very good. The cheesy potatoes were good but not what I was expecting, almost a mashed potato with hash browns mixed in and a cheese sauce. I did try a bite of my wife's Turkey melt and it was delicious. I will revisit that one. All in all, I really enjoyed this BBQ restaurant and it's become a quick favorite. My only negative is the cost vs portion size. It was adequate but I had room for more which is unusual for a BBQ serving. It won't keep me away but if they made a little tweak towards larger portions, I'd get even more excited about eating there. Try 'em out, you'll be glad you did! read more

This place is so cute and amazing food. The lady and gentleman was so gracious for serving us 15 after they was already closed for the day. And the brisket is so awesome just by itself. We only wish it was closer to where we live to come more. Thank you guys so much. read more

Off The Hook BBQ - Ribs that just fall off the bone and don't need any BBQ sauce - Barbeque Near Me - Gladstone, Missouri

Myself and a co-worker stopped in today for lunch. Got to meet Wardell and his mom. They are super nice people. I ordered the brisket sandwich that came 2 sides. The sides I got were Max and cheese and the Baked beans. The only thing that fought me off guard was the brisket sandwich I wasn't expecting a chopped brisket sandwich. It was good though I really enjoyed it. The Mac and Cheese was good also. I loved the Baked Beans. This were delicious. My coworker got the pulled pork sandwich and loved it. He also enjoyed the Mac and cheese. They gave us 2 extra sides for free to try Cheesy potatoes and potato salad. I didn't know it was going to be mashed potato's but they were legit, loved them. The potato salad was a little to sweet for me. But all in all I will be back. If you live in Parkville or anywhere in KC come support this new BBQ restaurant in our little town of Parkville. read more

Off The Hook BBQ - Business card - Barbeque Near Me - Gladstone, Missouri

I hired Off the Hook BBQ for my Dad's 90th birthday celebration and they helped make it a huge success!!! From creating the menu, to answering my panicked text message 3 days before (at 4am), to making adjustments at the last minute, Wardell and his team were so understanding, patient and kind. The food was AWESOME, and let me tell you, THOSE BEANS WITH BRISKET IN THEM.....a meal in itself!! The brisket, chicken and potato salad were a also a hit. And who can't love a man who has his Mom working with him!! If you are looking for a conscientious caterer with GREAT FOOD, Off The Hook is it!! read more

Loved this bbq joint so much! In a city that's famous for it, this place is the real deal!

Delicious, filling food. I had a baked potato piled high with brisket and Mac & cheese. It was HUGE and so delicious. The owners were extremely friendly and such a joy to talk with. Easy to miss spot, but worth your time to stop by. read more

Husband got brisket sandwich and I got pulled pork. Absolutely delicious and the people were super nice! If you're there for parkville days this weekend, try it out!! read more

Home of the best pulled pork sandwich I have ever eaten. Juicy and flavorful. They just won a trophy at a BBQ competition last week and I think they will do well in the future, at least I certainly hope so! The brisket was falling apart tender. Check them out at their walk-up window in Parkville. I will be back soon. read more
